Why wouldn't yeast and water inflate a balloon unless you add sugar?
The sugar is needed as food for the yeast. The yeast gives off carbon dioxide as it digests the sugar. The carbon dioxide could be used to inflate the balloon. Without the sugar, the yeast remains dormant and does not give off carbon dioxide.
Which of a hydrogen filled balloon air filled balloon and a carbon dioxide filled balloon will deflate the fastest and which is the slowest and explain your answer?
A hydrogen balloon will deflate the fastest because molecules of hydrogen are the smallest and thus will more easily slip through the latex of the balloon. The carbon dioxide-filled balloon will deflate the slowest because these molecules are the biggest, and thus will have more trouble escaping the tiny pores in the balloon.
What are the contents and the percentages in air?
Nitrogen - 78% Oxygen - 21% Carbon Dioxide - 0.04% Noble gases - 0.96%
When you blew a birthday balloon what gas will it be inside the balloon?
Imagine inhaling to blow in a balloon. You will take in air, hold it in your mouth and blow it into the balloon. Some of it will be the carbon dioxide you were exhaling but most of it will be the air you just breathed in. So, the gas inside the balloon will be a mixture, that is, air.
Why does a balloon filled with carbon dioxide sink in the surrounding air?
The density of carbone dioxide is higher than the density of air .The formula for calculating the density is :rho=(P*M)/(R*T),where R is a constant equal to 8.314(J/mol.k) and P is pressure and T is absolute temperature so in equal temperature and pressure that the volume of two gas is equal ( air and carbon dioxide) but the atomic number of carbon dioxide is 44 and the atomic number of air is 29 so the density of carbon dioxide is higher than air and the bouyancy force cannot overcome the gravity force .It's just like when you put a piece of iron in the water.
What is a carbon dioxide balloon?
A balloon with CO2 instead of helium or hydrogen
Why wont a blloone with carbon dioxide float?
To float in air, the density of the balloon (divide the combined mass of balloon + contents by its volume) must be LESS than that of the same volume of air. If the gas inside the balloon has a greater density than air, the combined object (balloon + contents) won't have less density than air, either.
Why does'nt a balloon with carbon dioxide float and a balloon with helium does?
Because, carbon dioxide is heavier than air whereas helium is lighter than air.
What air is used to blow a balloon with the mouth?
Carbon dioxide, the air we have in us that we breath out. Carbon dioxide doesn't make the balloon float in the air, while Helium does.
Is Carbon dioxide filled with balloon a chemical change?
No. helium is released in outer air but does not lose or change its chemical formula
What is the gas in a balloon that a human blows up?
well since we breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, it would have to be carbon Dioxide

What happens when you mix baking soda and vinegar in a balloon?
The balloon inflates with carbon dioxide because mixing baking soda and vinegar causes a chemical reaction between the acetic acid in vinegar and sodium bicarbonate in baking soda. Once the reaction completes its first step, the product is carbonic acid that decomposes into carbon dioxide and water. When the entire reaction is complete sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide remain. The carbon dioxide is the gas that fills the balloon.
What will happen to a tied balloon that has dry ice inside it when it is placed in room temperature water?
The balloon should expand because the frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) will sublime into carbon dioxide gas when placed into the room temperature water. The gas will expand, causing the balloon to expand.
What is the procedure for making baking soda and vinegar blow up a balloon?
carbon dioxide
What effect does sweetener on carbon dioxide production in a yeast balloon experiment?
It does NOT produce CO2
